Description
DELUXE LIMITED EDITION--featuring beautiful stenciled edges!
Once is chance. Twice is fate.
"This book made me remember why I fell in love with reading." - B. Celeste
Sage Collins knows a thing or two about odds. A year ago, she was a data analyst until she burned it all down to pursue her dream of becoming an author. One whirlwind bestseller and a struggling second book later, and Sage isn’t sure she’ll ever write a novel again.
But then an accidental encounter with an irritating passenger on the flight to Comic Con leaves Sage in an untested position. That passenger is Theo Sharpe: a breakout actor on the cusp of fame. And, unfortunately, the paparazzi have mistaken her for his girlfriend.
Armed with signature British charm and a smile that could tame oceans, Theo wears fame like a well-fit coat…though Sage can see there’s something deeper held in his eyes. But his fans are too involved in the drama, the pressure to deliver the next bestseller is on, and Sage and Theo both must agree there’s nothing between them. They don't have to acknowledge that saying it doesn't make it true.
When Sage decides to flee to Scotland to clear her head and write her novel, she expects to find fresh air and the stillness to think. What she doesn’t expect is Theo Sharpe to come back into her life…and how he may be her greatest miscalculation of all.
An emotionally-charged novel in the vein of Ashley Poston and Yulin Kuang, The Odds of You is a smart and sexy first contemporary novel from bestselling romantasy author Kate Dramis.
"A raw and poignant love story." - Tarah DeWitt

I absolutely loved it! It’s such a sweet and engaging story. It’s cute, fun, and full of heart. Theo was my favorite. I couldn’t get enough of his character. Definitely a book that left me smiling and wanting more. Can’t wait for everyone else to read it!
"Once is chance. Twice is fate."
The Odds of You was the first book I read by Kate Dramis and I absolutely loved it. The romance was swoon-worthy and had so much chemistry. The relationship between Sage and Theo had me laughing, crying, and smiling. It showed me that you shouldn't dismiss a stranger right away after meeting them..they may just become the person who inspires you. Sage reminded me of me at times when it came to the anxiety surrounding completing her second book and handling the fame of being connected to an actor on the brink of fame. The family issues for both Sage and Theo and work stresses added a serious tone to the book. This was well balanced with everything else that was in it, such as the text messages with Sage's friend group. Overall, this is the perfect book for those looking for a contemporary romance that features a globe-trotting storyline, slow-burn romance, second chances, and emotionally-charged spice.
Thank you so much NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for the eARC.

The chemistry in this book was swoon worthy! I’m not normally a fan of celeb romances, but this book was excellent! There was great banter, cozy vacations, and a great relationship!! A fun and sweet read!
The way this man cherishes her!!
Theo and Sage navigate their insecurities, family issues, depression/anxiety, grief, expectations together with the hottest 'f*ck it' moment on a unexpected get-away, creating the perfect setting!
Sage is relatable is every way - internal struggles, anxiety, balancing dreams with real responsibility.
This book has perfect twists, heartbeat, chemistry, and banter, but it also explores how people can change.
Theo and Sage's story is definitely more of a slow burn, while also being in third person which i felt was perfect for their kind of story.
If you like romance that includes inner turmoil, deeper issues, supportive friendships, career pressures, and gradual romantic tension, this is likely to be very satisfying. Even if you prefer light, fast, purely romantic plots with less internal monologue or less emotional “weight,” this might be more than you want - though many seem to find the payoff worth it ;)
The Odds of You is a cozy romance perfect for curling up with. Kate Dramis whisks you to snowy Scotland as Sage finds love and herself. Beneath the charm, it gently reminds readers with anxiety, restless minds, and people-pleasing hearts that they’re not alone. Warm, heartfelt, and relatable.

I loved this book. From the moment Sage and Theo meet, there’s so much chemistry, so much tension. Their relationship progressed well, even if it was non linear. Many times while reading, I was giggling and blushing. I was very invested and rooting for them. This book also touched on serious topics such as grief, imposter feelings and complicated relationships with family. I liked how these subjects were depicted. Sage and Theo went through a lot of growth. The Scottish setting was very enjoyable. Sage’s friends were also such great support. Honestly, I really had fun reading this. I thought the book had a nice balance between light and cute moments and more serious ones. I definitely recommend reading this book !
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an arc of this book. Opinions are my own.
Kate Dramis has once again knocked it out of the park. This is everything I could've wanted from her romance debut! It was so fun and heart warming. I love a celebrity/noncelebrity romance so much so I already knew I'd like this. Had me crying at one point too, so obviously that made me like it more. Such a good time! Recommending to everyone I know.

There’s a very high chance that The Odds of You by Kate Dramis just became one of my new favorite romances. This story has it all: a swoony British actor, a dreamy airplane meet-cute, and a trip abroad that sparks a slow-burn romance I couldn’t put down. Add in complicated families, plenty of angst, and just the right amount of drama, and you’ll find yourself rooting for Sage and Theo all the way to their HEA. A perfect pick if you’re craving a heartfelt, globe-trotting love story.

I tore through this book & is one of my few 5 star reads this year. Can't quite put my finger as to why this one spoke to me so much but it did & can't for the release to everyone else. It's got the trope where 1 MC is famous, but it's done in a fairly believable way. There's a neurodivergence FMC who you can't help but root for & her gal pals are the best sidekicks. This is a fairly explicit & spicy book in case that is or isn't your thing.
This book left me with tears in my eyes and a heart that feels so full. This is much more than just a romance. It explores anxiety, grief, and the struggle of staying true to yourself. Sage was written with such authenticity it was impossible not to see myself in her. Theo? Beyond charming. I was swooning right along with Sage. Their love was raw, messy, and achingly beautiful.
Thank you so much to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
